optimize - Pragma for hinting optimizations on variables

    use optimize;
    my $int : optimize(int);
    $int = 1.5;
    $int += 1;
    if($int == 2) { print "$int is integerized" }

    #Following will call this callback with the op
    #as the argument if you are in the specified package
    #see types.pm how it is used from import and unimport
    optimize->register(\&callback, $package);

    #and reverse it
    optimize->unregister($package);

optimize allows you to use attributes to turn on optimizations. It works as a framework for different optimizations.

optimize usually rewrites the optree, weird and funky things can happen, different optimizations will be in a different state of readyness
